While traveling through New England, I visited this restaurant today for the first time...with several local friends. The restaurant was conveniently located, nicely decorated outside and inside, had plenty of free parking, was not greeted upon entering, were seated within a couple minutes, the dining room and our table were clean and neat, the menu with rather simple, but adequate, my Vermonter Omelette meal was very tasty, prices were reasonable, our server was friendly and efficient and served us well, and would gladly visit this diner in the future. read more

On our way to Canada we stop by this little town in VT and had some really good food. Their most famous burger woodsman was decent for a dinner 8/10 score on it. The fries needed seasoning but were nice and crispy. The staff was friendly and attentive, it was also really fast which is great when in transit. read more

Stopped by Anthony's Diner and ordered a burger, and it was amazing. The burger was cooked perfectly, juicy, and full of flavor, with fresh toppings and a toasted bun. You can tell they take pride in their food. Service was fast and friendly, and the atmosphere had that classic diner vibe that makes you feel comfortable right away. Great portions and great taste. I'll definitely be coming back to try more items on the menu. Highly recommend if you're craving a solid burger! read more

While out "leaf peeping" we stopped for lunch. The diner is obviously a popular lunch place! The diner has been around for 47 years and is clean snd well maintained. However, the decor needed a bit of updating. Our server was nice and efficient. The menu had lots of options as any good diner should snd the prices were reasonable. We ordered snd then we waited. Fortunately we weren't in a big hurry. Finally our sandwiches arrived. The taste of mine was good, but the wheat bread seemed a little stale - a little hard and dry- like it had been sitting out for a while. My husband had white bread toasted, so maybe that would have been a better choice. So while this wasn't our best dining experience, we were able to stave off hunger for a few more hours. read more

I was looking forward to returning here and had planned this Diner as a destination to go to in St. Johnsbury given my excellent experience last time. This time it was the opposite: Bad and bland turkey dinner, very small portion of turkey meat and when I tilted my plate a little, water rolling on the side from the boiled vegetables. I waited to quickly finish my bland small portioned meal and had another meal about 2 hours after. The burger that my spouse ordered was better than my meal. However, unfortunately the fries were dried out and way too burned that should have been. Fries are a fairly staple item on many menu's so whoever put them out should have thought twice before thinking the shoddy cooking was acceptable! read more

The food is very good their especially the burgers. The service is like every other diner but they are super nice. The food comes out super fast. It is also dirt cheap. read more

Excellent ! The food is consistently good! I recommend the paddy melt ! We try to go often!! read more

Anthony's diner, good food for dinner. Nice atmosphere good service. I have eaten here many times and the quality can be spotty.

So so disappointed in this place. 10 dollars for a side of basically kraft macaroni and cheese. Canned green beans as a vegetable. Coleslaw was warm and tasted old. My haddock tasted as if it had gone bad. Gross food, and way over priced. Could have gotten the same meal but better quality at Tim's Deli for half the price. Never entering this building again. read more

Anthony's Diner is a new/old diner. The original burned TWICE if I remember right. Anyways open for Breakfast, lunch AND dinner but closed EARLY :-( All kinds of hamburgs, all you can eat fish fry on Fridays, and other diner favorites. Was a time that they only took cash but 2 ATM's next door. On Railroad St st jay next to Mickey D's. read more

My wife and I stopped in for a meal while on the road. A nice rural dinner with rustic booths. We ordered burgers and fries. They were quick and cooked as ordered. The homemade fries were great The price was reasonable. It was not busy so I cannot vouch for the service during more hectic times. read more

Wholesome, simple food made with love. The french fries are hand cut and the onion rings are the BEST I've ever had. Glad we stopped in early on a Sunday afternoon Bonus: they serve beer and wine read more

My wife and I had breakfast here while traveling through the area. The breakfast potatoes were on the bland side but the rest of the breakfast was good. The server acted like she didn't want us there. When she brought our food out, she dropped a couple of grape jelly packets on the table without a word and we didn't see her again until I got her attention and asked for the check. My wife had to drink my water because the server didn't come back after our food was served to refill my wife's drink or to ask us if the food was ok. The restaurant wasn't busy while we were there so there was no reason for the poor service. read more

Stopped with my husband for lunch on a Saturday around 1pm. No breakfast items after 11 so we ordered chicken Caesar salad and a cup of soup along with coffee. The salad came out on a dinner plate with three or four cherry tomatoes cut up, a few bites of grilled chicken, romaine lettuce and the tiniest croutons I've seen. This salad was $13.95!!! I mentioned to our waitress when paying the bill ($54 with tip) that the salad were very overpriced for the quantity. She apologized and said, "the owner's daughter was cooking and she's very "stingy"! Wow! What a way to run a business. We will NEVER return. read more

Stopped in for dinner and ordered the local burger, which is just a regular burger. It was pretty good! I expected the burger to come with lettuce and tomatoes (just the usual) but it just came with the buns, meat, and cheese. I guess I should have asked. Regardless, it was pretty good! read more

anthony's diner really exceeded my expectations. the atmosphere and service were both great, our server was very friendly and attentive. our food came out very quickly, and my partner and i were both very happy with our entrees. the hot turkey entree came with stuffing underneath the turkey as well, which was a pleasant surprise. the turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing all tasted phenomenal like a homemade thanksgiving dinner. the mac and cheese was absolutely worth getting. it was very creamy and cheesy, i was obsessed and practically cleared the plate. my partner requested crispy chicken rather than grilled for his chicken club and they were happy to comply. really recommend anthony's diner! read more

Outstanding little place right near the highway. Turkey club is amazing as they carve their own fresh turkey every day. French fries are fresh, handcut fries. Quite a pleasant surprise. read more

I was in town visiting friends and he brought us here because it was closest to where we were heading to after. The service was poor. We got waffles with blueberries, mushrooms, sausage, and cheddar omelette with homefries. Also the vermonter omelette which has peppers,onions tomatoes, ham and cheddar. The omelettes were good, but the homefries were just big fried potatoes. No seasonings at all. Waffle was nothing special and you have to ask for maple syrup and it'll cost extra and she'll give you literally not even a shot of it lol. I wouldn't recommend this place or come back. read more

Quaint local diner with great food & amazing service. Grace was such a friendly and efficient waitress and the chocolate pie fantastic. Definitely worth stopping for! read more

It was an ok spot to stop... wished we could've made the effort to look for another option around the area but we were tired and hungry. First, we were disappointed to find out that they didn't have any breakfast. I thought that diners always served breakfast? We stopped here along the way because we wanted pancakes in the middle of the day and this was the only "diner" that popped up for us. Since breakfast was not an option, we settled for sandwiches and hamburgers. Sadly, those were also disappointing. The sandwiches and burgers were dry... nothing special. Just the usual dry, under seasoned patty, lettuce, tomatoes and bacon (if you order it) on a regular bun. Same thing goes for the fries... The food was acceptable but nothing special. read more

Great food a must stop! Town has very few options and in my opinion there is only one to stop @ Anthony's! Someone needs to claim this spot as it didn't pop up on my Yelp! read more

I love diners and while visiting the St Johnsbury area we needed to check this one out. Upon entering we immediately felt unwelcome and uncomfortable. The only one waitstaff may have been overwhelmed as the place was busy, however not friendly at all. We ordered basic breakfast, eggs, toast, bacon and home fries, along with coffee. I didn't like the coffee, it had a flowery taste to it, now that could have been because I had a plant sitting right on my face but nonetheless coffee gets eh. The breakfast was good, then the one wait staff asked if everything was ok, so I actually thought ok I'll add a extra star to the revJew. Probably wouldn't visit again if in the area. read more

Prime example of an American diner. I had the 2 egg, 2 piece of toast, bacon and home fries plate. The home fries were well-sized, perfectly cooked and seasoned. I really enjoyed it. My husba d had the steak and eggs and then a piece of pie he really enjoyed. The place wasn't too full because of the time of day. I was sad because they didn't have any of the homemade donuts. The restrooms and diner were all very clean as well. read more

Food was good as I had a mountain man burger that came with fries and a beer. My wife had the mac and cheese. Not outstanding but very good. Price was inexpensive. read more

I see there are mixed reviews for this place and that sucks cause the two times I have been here it was amazing! Both times I have the potato skins and they are so good! They have tons of cheese, bacon and the sour cream is great too. This last visit I shared the fried clams/mashed potatoes and the burger melt/fries with my sister and it was seriously all sooo good. I would definitely go back here for all of that food again. It is diner food, it's a diner so keep that in mind when you go here. I love that kind of food so it's awesome in my eyes. The waitress was by herself and did a good job with us and everyone else. It was clean and it's super cute inside, I really like this spot. My only complaint would be that the pie did not have homemade whipped cream on top!! What is that?!? It was cool whip and that's almost unacceptable to me haha because it should all be homemade. Someone should really be making that whipped topping for the pies and it would make a huge difference. Other than the whipped topping I really do love this spot and will definitely go back when I'm around here, probably just won't eat the pies :/ read more

Burger was delicious! Fries are awesome as well, especially with the gravy. Pam rocks!

Black gentleman on Reddit said waitress was very rude to him, while she seemed polite to everyone else. Black people's money is as good as anyone else's. Shape up or fail. read more

We sat down at an empty, unbussed booth, and after feeling invisible for 10 minutes.. Gave up and left. There were 3 waitresses, not a packed place for12:00, but none looked too busy to wait on us, or acknowledge our presence!! They walked around empty handed, in no rush whatsoever. One blonde waitress stood within 6 feet of our table, took their order, then walked off without so much as a nod. Totally surreal..! I know it's small town, but as a Vermont resident for 15 years, I can honestly say I have never in my life received zero service-ever-from anywhere. Yelp needs a "0" star review, or in this case negative zero.! We walked up the hill to Dylan's on Eastern St, where we received instant and warm greeting. Fresh hot coffee and great food! If you are undecided about where to eat in St J... Run from Anthony's, go to Dylan's instead. read more

I am a local so I have eaten here a few times. It's very mediocre food, and incredibly overpriced for the quality. If you are contemplating were to eat near St. Johnsbury, drive ten minutes and go to The Mooselook Restaurant in Concord, VT, or the Miss Lyndonville Diner in Lyndonville, VT. Both are very good and better priced. Would not recommend Anthony's. read more

Well it's clean, but after that so far service is horrible. Waitress moves like a snail. Took a long time just to get coffee. Diners should have coffee arriving with the waitress. She visited our table three times before coffee came out. Waitress delivered food to edge of table and walked away. Food was average but good and came out quick. All in all this is a won't come back because of service! read more

Good family spot to grab lunch. Phenomenal baked goods and deserts. Specials are always good. My kids find their Mac&Cheese to be amazing so it's a go-to for them if we get their insight when picking a place to go. read more

This diner is nothing remarkable. The prices are very high for a diner, but I can't help but think that's because it's in the scummy part of St. Johnsbury and they keep the prices high to keep the scumbags out of the place. In the times I have been there, it has never been busy, service has been nothing to write home about, and the bill is expensive for the NEK. Go to Eastern & Main Market & Deli up the street and get a delicious breakfast sandwich and sit on their patio (in the summer). read more

Nice little local place. You get to mingle with the locals while dining on good food. Friendly and great service. We were here for breakfast. read more

We fell in here for a mid-week lunch when the place was jammed with regulars including the ladies' red hat group enjoying their monthly soiree. Frankly, we figured we were screwed; it would take until the weekend to get noticed by the waitresses. It actually took less than five minutes, which gave us enough time to observe that every person who walked in shouted a greeting to either a waitress or someone in the kitchen (which is pretty visible). None of this, of course, suggests this experience would be a decent one, in spite of our three-star rating. The facts are, however, that we weren't ignored, the food arrived in a timely fashion and it was pretty good. Now remember this is really a diner, not a restaurant playing with terminology. I's not quite the cleanest place we've ever been in, but we saw nothing shocking either on the floor or on our food. The calves' liver was cooked lightly as we asked and was flavorful, and so were the veggies (green beans and beets). The egg salad sandwich has a bit too much mayonnaise for our taste, but the bread was good and so were the homemade chips. By the way, they make their own desserts, too, and while we didn't sample any, they looked awfully good. The red hat ladies assured us they were indeed yummy. And by the time we finished we were chatting with all of the people in our part of the restaurant (it has tables and a counter). We felt right at home, one of the hallmarks of a good diner, in our view. read more

The most outstanding thing about this diner that comes to my mind is that the majority of the waitresses that work here today also worked here when I was a freshman in high school almost 8 years ago. They've probably worked there longer than that, but that is when I remember them being there. Touche, ladies. The food is mediocre, the atmosphere is nothing to write home about, and the floor is usually dirty. It's a diner :) You will also see the neightborhood pig patrol (cops) in here quite often. Just a side note. read more

The atmosphere is casual. The staff was a bit thin, however it was a Sunday evening. The haddock was served in large portions and was quite tasty. The clam chowder had a creamy broth and there was plenty of clam meat. Chicken barley was a good alternative. The Buffalo chicken tenders were not spicy but tasty. The "woodsman' burgers were Angus beef were severed in large portions, but lacked a bit in flavor. A bit disappointing as were the onion rings which were cooked in too much batter. The sweet potatoes fries were cut thin, but were a bit soggy. Hot water for tea was a bit too tepid for the tea to properly brew. Overall, a good experience. read more

This place has little going for it and the service is "service with a sneer". Had turkey sandwich on "wheat" bread (actually very dry multigrain)....turkey is real turkey, but dry tasteless. Waitress had the bill on the table about 10 seconds after we were served. Go across the street to the Wine Gate...may be a dollar or so more, but sandwiches, etc. are much better!! happy trails read more

Went here as we went threw town, we ordered strawberry pancakes, that were topped with can strawberries with all the juice that soaked the pancakes to make them a pile of mush. The wrap with peppers are also canned peppers. To top it all off Vermont maple syrup is an extra $2.50. I would be embarrassed charging people for syrup as you are a Vermont business. $2.50 for a shot glass of syrup for 2 pancakes is crazy!!!! We won't be back! read more
